On this week's group chat, we talk about parenting
and work burnout; look for our own traits, good or bad, in our
kids; shout out some stuff we like on the Roundabout Roundup; chat
with Robert Rummel-Hudson about the ABC series Speechless;
and engage in some shameless self-promotion. Here's your road map
to the episode:

05:15 Enough Already— Our podcast is
dedicated to the topics parents complain about, so we thought we’d
discuss what can happen when you’re just overwhelmed with how much
work parenting can be —physically, logistically, emotionally. Do
you ever feel burned out as a parent? Are you already weeping in a
dark room while you listen to this? Us too.

21:44 Speed Round: Do Your Kids Take After You?
—Recently on a
speed round, we talked about which of our parents we're most
like. So today, we’re asking what traits of yourself you see in
your kids — and is that good or bad?

30:12 Interview of the Week: Robert
Rummel-Hudson — We've devoted our interview
segment to ABC's new sitcom Speechless a
couple of
times on this podcast before, but it's still delighting us
sufficiently that we're going to talk about it again, this time
with monthly contributor Robert
Rummel-Hudson (watch the “bulletproof” scene he
mentions at left or on YouTube).
